Your Bile is coming along really nicely - particularly like the brain in the backpack and how it contrasts with the armour colour. My one criticism is with the fluid in the vials - it really isn't clear what is going on. Normally, to represent liquid in a container, one paints the dark colour at the bottom (or the part farthest from the light source), with a narrower lighter version of the liquid colour near the surface of the liquid, a very thin band of white at the surface, then black (or, if you are more skilled than I am, painting it to show an empty bottle - not sure how that technique is pulled off) above that. Here, your colours don't quite line up that way and the thick white bands make them look rather frothy. Anyway, something to think about, either for this or later models.

Those are really unique and eye catching.

But less like it was painted by gorillas. (that's the sense that I meant "neater", but I can see how there was room for confusion).

Indeed you did - sorry I missed it. It looks great - way neater than mine.

@Mandragola - thanks for the clarification, I'll put you at 27 - the Saturnine is considerably bigger than the Leviathan, so I think it should be worth 4 rather than 3 points (even at the expense of no longer being outweighed by the 4 mini dreads) . For transparency, Mandragola has been given several new prerelease models to paint, and has vowed them as part of CtA. Due to the agreement he made that allowed him to receive them, he is unable to show those models or tell what they are prior to their official reveal. So, CtA is allowing him to vow them secretly, and provide proof of their unpainted status after the fact. Keep an eye on this thread, as I suspect we're going to be seeing something cool.

Loving your EC, Boc - having the opulent white and lavender be so grungy really gives them a depraved, fallen look.

For the purposes of transparency, I would like to explain that I have let Boc substitute his 6 over-counted noise marines with 2 lord kakaphonists without altering his vowed points - for a fun event, I don't think its appropriate to force him to fill the shortfall in noise marines with new purchases, and this seemed like the fairest way of resolving the matter with the models he has.

What are you valuing the LI Kratos at, and how does it compare in size to the LI baneblade and rhinos? Its valued the same as a baneblade (3) in LI points list, and I'm trying to figure out whether that is appropriate. I have you listed at 30 for now, but we can adjust accordingly. As well, if you could post pics of your other vowed models, even if they are unbuilt sprues - unfortunately, a random blank box doesn't cut it.

Some really neat models you picked up there - looking forward to seeing what you do with the ladies in Edwardian dresses in particular.

Hoping to get my first games in with the new codex this WE - either 1 game at 1500 points, or 2 at 1000 if both my 40K playing friends are free. Here are the lists I'm thinking of running. 1500 points - Carnival of Excess (because I don't have enough non-demon stuff yet for 1500 points) Demon prince with wings Lord Exultant with spear and lash + 10x infractors (champion with lash) 2x Daemonettes Lord Kakaphonist with sword and pistol + noise marines with 2x blastmaster (champion with sonic blaster) Lord Kakaphonist with 2x pistol + noise marines with 2x blastmaster (champion with sonic blaster) 2x units of 5x Seekers Spawn Maulerfiend with tendrils Rhino (either for the infractors or the noise marines) 1000 points - Coterie of the Conceited Lord Exultant with spear and lash + 10x infractors (champion with lash). Lord Kakaphonist with sword and pistol + noise marines with 2x blastmaster (champion with sonic blaster) Lord Kakaphonist with 2x pistol + noise marines with 2x blastmaster (champion with sonic blaster) 2x Maulerfiends with tendrils Rhino (either for the infractors or the noise marines) Both lists are kind of a hodge-podge of units, as the backbone of both lists are models that are either migrated or being borrowed from my CSM army. For example, I would prefer to give my noise marine champions pistols and swords, but I'm using my old models that have sonic blasters. Basically, the only stuff that is post codex (and therefore in my new colours) are the infractors, lord exultant, and the sword lord kakaphonist (the twin pistol kakaphonist is the limited edition noise marine that serves as a Dark Apostle in my CSM army). I don't think Coterie will play as well at low points, as there will be less for me to kill and less to kill it with, making it harder to make my vows - but it looks like the most fun of the non-demon detachments so I thought it is worth a try. Plus, I didn't want to go carnival at that low points, as its too easy to pick apart and kill the squads giving the synergies. Anyway, I'll let you know how it goes. I'm playing against orks (probably foot based, but my friend has a large collection, so who knows) and maybe also necrons (who are the bane of my existence, no matter what army I play I never beat them [except for with my chaos knights]), probably destroyer heavy (also with a large collection, so again who knows).

I love the various EC colour schemes that have come out on B&C since the release of the new codex - they are all so different, but so appropriate visually. This includes yours, which I really like - its a great take on the old-school pink and black scheme - its paring with the green-blue tabards works great. If you are interested, here are links to the EC done by some of the other members: Boc's delightfully grubby white and lavender EC My own obnoxiously violet caped EC Slaanbull's heavily mutated pink and black EC Sume's muted gray and pastel EC Inquisitor Lensoven's violently blue EC Cpt.Danjou's muted purple and bright gold EC Prot's purple and black EC By Spear of Achilles' white and purple EC

Your crates are looking great! As is your warehouse - for it, to keep it usuable, you may want to make the side/roof removable for the placement and movement of models. Another fictional corporation you might want to include is the Umbrella Corporation from Resident Evil - though its logo may be too close the Lost one. Looking forward to seeing the Zildous industrial conglomerate represented.
